Comments from on-call EHS"
Sunday morning I was called by Loudoun County Fire and Rescue for a grease fire at the McDonald’s in Leesburg (Market Street). I arrived on-site at noon and met with the manager. The fire was in the location of the fryer and activated the fire suppression system under the fryer hood only (it was the liquid not powder). I was told that the suppressant did not extend beyond the fryer area; however everything had already been freshly cleaned prior to my arrival. The fryer had not been cleaned and still contained the contaminated grease when I was there, and it was being worked on/checked by maintenance. I told the manager that the restaurant could re-open but could not use the fryer until the contaminated grease had been drained and the unit cleaned, and filled with new oil. The fryer also must be in good working order and the hood system over the fryer is to be reset/operational. I informed the manager that I would contact the facility’s normal health inspector and that a re-inspection may be needed."
Site visit 3/7/16 to verify fryers (x3) -oil discarded, cleaned and oil replaced.
Fire suppression has been serviced and fire extinguishers recharged.

No violation noted during this evaluation.
